ORLANDO, Fla – Walt Disney World is now offering the coronavirus vaccine for its employees.
In an email sent to cast members, Disney officials said the Pfizer vaccines would begin to be administered Tuesday, and would be limited on a first-come, first-serve basis. Appointments could be booked through Disney’s internal health services scheduling website, and would be available for Florida-based Disney cast members who are both working, or furloughed.
The vaccine site is at the Health Services building located along Backstage Lane near EPCOT.
First Live Look Inside Walt Disney World s Star Wars Hotel

The head of the Walt Disney World Resort has shared two of the first live photos from inside the Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser hotel, now under construction at the resort.
Here is Walt Disney World President Jeff Vahle with one of the bunks in the hotel s cabins.
Disney is using the word cabins rather than rooms because the Galactic Starcruiser is themed to be a ship in space, after all. Bookings will be for two-night cruises that will include a port call to Batuu, i.e. Disney s Star Wars Galaxy s Edge land at the Disney s Hollywood Studios theme park next door.
